Sweetest Day is not just another Valentine's Day but one day set aside to celebrate those who make your life special. Heart Birch Kingston, the founder of Sweetest Day, looked to give cheer and happiness to those who were often forgotten, including orphans, shut-ins, and the sick. This year I celebrate those who have been a constant presence in my own life, including those who I often forget to thank.
Fun Sweetest Day Fact: In 1922, The Sweetest Day in The Year Committee distributed over 20,000 boxes of candy to "newsboys, orphans, old folks, and the poor" in Chicago, Illinois.
